Steve,

Hard to tell from the angle, but I believe the first piston
image is an L/78 or L/72 piston. OD will tell you for sure.

Nice score...Those wheels are MINT! Notice the tint on the center spokes...very cool.

I just googled the part number and they are 396: 1965 to 1969 closed chamber forged pistons 10.6 to 1 with 109 cc heads. Dont know what the rods are though.

I seem to be getting inundated with questions about the tach sender unit. I assume this may have been something Yenko used at the dealership? it's rather hard to read but the part number on the box looks like D990-A. Well, here are some more photos for the inquiring minds:

Man...those wheels are awesome!

Man, those wheels look like they have trim rings! I had a set of those 200S wheels and I still can't imagine them looking like that. Nice finds.

There is no comparison: the wheels on my Charger are the same age (actually Dec 1970 dated) and they look almost like a satin finish on the outer area of the rim compared to the original "out of the box" polished finish. The inner spokes even look like a different color even though they are natural aluminum. Must be all that New Jersey atmosphere they were exposed to all these years.

By the way, here is the same flywheel after soaking in the rust remover ( http://www.safestrustremover.com/ )stuff overnight. Amazing difference
